Most people join the US military to get socialist benefits, calling random soldiers who have likely contributed nothing to the attacks in Iran and we're likely in the military before Trump declared war and are bound by law to stay in, thugs is a stupid take. Are there terrible people in the US military sure, but I'd argue that most of them are decent people trying to eek out a basic life and would prefer not to kill or be killed in combat.

No fuck them and fuck you. Iwould rather starve than assist in an illegal war. They are not thugs they are terrorists

US military was an evil bunch of hooligans long before Trump. I have no repect for anyone who chooses to join there.

The US Imperial military is itself a horrendous organization, filled with people that signed up to willingly participate in the war machine.

Most thugs join gangs to get benefits too. And most thugs would draw the line at bombing a school.

Epstein's body guards, pilots and crew all needed money to feed their families too.
